Oui mais le passage suivant s’applique a cette société répondant au joli nom de "Le Siècle".
The very word "secrecy" is repugnant in a free
and open society ; and we are as a people inherently and historically
opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and to secret proceedings.
We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted
concealment of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are
cited to justify it. Even today, there is little value in opposing the
threat of a closed society by imitating its arbitrary restrictions.
